Front Door Glass Run Channel (Left) for BYD Qin PLUS EV, OE 12225917-00

The left hand front door. Take your bearings from inside the car, facing the windscreen, and the left side is on your left. This channel is handed and it is also specific to the front door, so neither the right hand front nor the left rear will interchange with it. Open the door you are working on and look at the channel that is already there before you commit to an order. If the car needs more than one, each position has to be ordered under its own reference.

Check it against HAD-6107113 before you give up. Two numbering styles for one part is ordinary in this supply chain, and either can end up moulded into the section. Read the digits off carefully, because the front and rear channels differ by very little. If your number matches neither of the two shown here, send it through the quote route with the vehicle details.

Delivery time is confirmed with your quote. If the window is currently sitting in a damaged channel, it is better to leave the glass wound up and wait than to keep working it. The shipping cost is confirmed with your quote. Before you order, check the number on your old part against OE 12225917-00.

The packaging details are shown on this page. It travels by courier, so pick a delivery address with the space and somebody there during the day. A neighbour taking it in for you is worth arranging in advance. When it lands, keep it flat until the moment it goes on the car. Do not prop it against anything that will bend it out of shape while it waits.

Rubber is what this part is made from. A long rubber section arrives with whatever curve the packaging gave it, so let it settle at room temperature and lay it out straight before you attempt anything. Cold material is harder to work into a corner and easier to distort. Take it slowly along the length instead of pulling from one end, which leaves the far end short. This page covers the material only, so anything about clips or fixing method has to come from the workshop rather than from here.

It does not. Black is the colour for this channel and that is how it is supplied, ready to go on without any preparation. Do not be tempted to paint or dress it to match a bright trim finish on the door frame, because a coating on the running surface will not survive the glass moving against it. Leave the rubber as it is. Photographs on this page show the finish you will receive, so compare them against the channel on your own car before ordering.

This channel is carried in the Original/Genuine tier alone, from BYD, with no Aftermarket part under OE number 12225917-00. That is the reason a single version shows here rather than two tiers to compare. Nothing further is waiting behind the page for this channel. If you would rather have options put to you before deciding, send the reference from the old channel through the quote route, and what exists can then be checked against it.
